Scientists use seismographs.
I believe that scientists wanted a way to locate and measure earthquakes.
It is important for scientists to develop ways to predict earthquakes. By it they can measure when the next one would be.
Well.... seismology is the study of earthquakes seismologists are the scientists who study earthquakes seismograph is how they measure earthquakes.... So using that, the root seismos is Greek for earthquake!
A type of geophysicist known as a seismologist measures the strength of earthquakes.

Scientists use seismographs to measure the magnitude of earthquakes. Seismographs detect the seismic waves generated by an earthquake, and the amplitude of these waves is used to calculate the earthquake's size. The most common scale used to measure earthquake size is the Richter scale or the moment magnitude scale.
We can't control earthquakes. Scientists are trying to measure pressure in rock formations and so be able to possibly foretell and warn that an earthquake may be imminent.
A seismograph is the device that scientists use to measure earthquakes. The goal of a seismograph is to accurately record the motion of the ground during a quake

The seismic waves that the earthquakes make travel slowly and scientists can track them
